WASHINGTON, April %.
Chief Justice Cartier, whose remains have
but just been carried to his old home near
Cleveland, o., has been a very prominent
factor in the history of the United States.
As a member of congress before the war, he
was one Of the most influential politicians Of
the west and had much to do with the nomi-
nation Of Abraham Lincoln. Judge Cartier
had also much to do with the nomination of

story OF both nominations to a correspondent
substantially as follows:
president Lincoln's nomination was very
doubtful up to the very hour at which it was
accomplished. Seward was by all odds the
strongest Of the several candidates ut the
time the convention met, and had the ballot
been taken the first day think lie would
have been nominated. 1t was not, however,
and by q curious combination Of ciTcum-
stances the elements opposed to him finally
selected Lincoln. / was chairman of the
Ohio delegation. The delegation had been
elected at Columbus, and was instructed for

rested beneath gentle spray of cold
water, whose limped clatter added an
other element of impressive ghastliness
to the place-a damp and chilling feeling
clothed with silence that the trickling
of the water emphasized and made the
more apparent. The nondescript hu-
manity that rested thus was covered so
as to leave only the faces exposed, linen
sheets being employed for the purpose,
while the clothing and contents of the
pockets were heaped on the foot of each
slab to aid in identifying their former
possessors. This was all copied from
the European plan based on the idea
that the surest means of identifying the
unfortunate was to expose them to the
public. Unless am very much mis-
taken, this custom still obtains in Lon
don, Paris, Berlin and the other capitals.
